OK updating this as I'm sure a lot of people will add the Reolink POE doorbell camera to their Hik NVR's as I have done and then try to get Smart playback to work as it does with Hik native IP cameras. After searching every possible config screen on the NVR I finally found what looks like the...

Thanks for the reply Dan - much appreciated. I am definitely confused here about settings on the camera for real time events versus storing the simple live image stream. I fully appreciate what you are saying about the different levels of integration so that I would not expect to be able to...

Happy new year folks, I have recently added a Reolink POE doorbell to my NVR and I pretty impressed with the video quality that it gives - especially for the price of under £100. I'm still somewhat shocked about how little choice there is for doorbell cameras that are not subscription, POE and...

Ah thanks for pointing to towards this My NVR is a DS760NI-I28P and running the latest firmware of V4.61.025.

Hi, This morning I noticed the alarm symbol on my admin screen go red when nothing was happening and I saw that there was a whole bunch of illegal login exceptions. Looking into the log detail I had 16 attempts of a few per second (so I assume something automated) to try to get admin access to...

Ah that's great - I had the old one on D2 and had added the new one on D5 and thought I could delete D2, but as you said I needed to offline the new one and return D5 to Plug and Play and when it failed to find anything I onlined it again and edited D2 with the new bell parameters. It's...

Hi and many thanks for the quick reply - much appreciated. Please bear with me as I'm a bit confused and maybe (almost certainly) not grasping the terminology correctly here - but when you say "You can't delete the unused PoE channels" I'm lost. My current doorbell is not on an NVR PoE...

Hi Folks, This one driving me nuts. My DS-7608NI-I2/8P NVR is running V4.61.025 - the latest build. I have just bought a new Doorbell Camera (Reolink POE camera) that is replacing an existing (Yoosee) doorbell camera. Both use POE injectors and are connected to my router as opposed to the POE...

Hi David, Got back on the case today - my Router is a BT Smart Hub 2 - and I decided to delete all the Port forwarding rules that I had previously set up and start from scratch with the advice on the HikConnect app on port forwarding. I did try UPnP but this did not work. Then I just created...

Hi David I’m at my mothers house for a couple of days so can’t get onto my router to get the port forwarding table. The Cube is on 192.168.1.72 and the NVR on .112 I took them off DHCP and made these permanent IP addresses because I assumed the mapping for the global IP address needed a fixed...

Thanks for the continued help The two entries in hik-connect.com site are identical for the public IP address I entered them using the serial numbers online and so the system picked up the serial numbers okay but then created the same IP address for each one so that when I tap on Remote...

Hi David, Many thanks for the quick reply. I did follow the very brief instructions provided by Hik on setting up my router port forwarding but I agree with you that I may have got this wrong as I don’t really have much experience with this (zero to be honest) The one thing that worries me...

Hello All I have a small home Hikvision installation with four IP cameras (three POE and one Cube Wifi) and a 760NI NVR running the latest firmware and the cameras and the NVR. When I am out of the house I like to be able to alter the alert settings on my cameras - and need DDNS to work to do...
